THE HDCD PROCESS
The SFD-1 MKII includes a free HDCD-encoded sampler CD to
demonstrate the HDCD process. This process is a true advance-
ment in digital audio reproduction, providing one of the single
greatest improvements in digital audio since the introduction of
the CD format more than a decade ago. This sophisticated
encoding/decoding system greatly reduces both additive and
subtractive distortions in digital recordings, providing a resolu-
tion and freedom from distortion equal to that of analog record-
ings. In addition, the HDCD decoder's internal digital filter pro-
vides significant sonic improvements to non-HDCD source mate-
rial as well.
